STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@gmail.com> added the comment:
The patch is correct according to the PEP 263:
If a source file uses both the UTF-8 BOM mark signature and a
magic encoding comment, the only allowed encoding for the comment
is 'utf-8'. Any other encoding will cause an error.
The fix should also be applied to 3.2.
(Note: Python 3.1 doesn't accept bugfixes anymore.)
